Arggggg! I went over my calories last night. I didn't think it would be this hard to eat at maintenance. Wow, I really blew it over the holidays. I didn't do too bad, I was 260 over. I know if I'd just skipped that darn dessert I would have been fine. I'm more mad because it makes me feel like I won't progress, which is where I've been stuck at for the last two months. It's great to have this challenge. It's keeping me accountable. It's the first thing I thought of when I realized I went over. I WANT to finish this challenge. And I WANT to see change.

My second w/o yesterday went good. All the racks were taken up so I did my Deadlift's with 15# dumbbells instead. I really want to start working with barbells. I've always been too intimidated to use them. I need to get over that. I'm surprisingly not sore today. I think this third workout I should up the weight a little and push more. I've been stuck at 30# max weight for far too long.

I started keeping my log like the books says. Up until now I've never done that. I can already see the big benefit to doing this.
